It is a mission that will prove your skills and test your limits as a commander. In this mission type, the lance must destroy an enemies base while a steady stream of forces try to knock out your base. There is a new encounter called attack and defense. I know when I’ve screwed up… New Encounter and Flashpoint By then, I wasn’t even mad because my downfall was just amusing. In taking out that building, I lost cover for two of my mechs and as a result, lost them fairly quickly afterwards. (Honestly, I blame the lasers which never actually hit a target when I want them to.) However, I can’t fully blame my loss on the stray shots because, there was one point during the mission that I accidentally targeted a building instead of the mech using it for line of sight. In the end, the enemy lance slaughtered most of my team. Of course, it was downhill from there as the enemy lance managed to slide into a better tactical position against my once well placed mechs. The building collapsed and I lost my height advantage. Some stray shots caused enough damage to certain buildings that plummeted a mech of mine to the ground. In the matches I played on the urban maps, I managed to have the upper hand for most of the duration until a few things happened. The new Urban biome in Battletech is a lot of fun because it allows for a lot of cover and ensures players will have better strategic positioning against the enemy lance. Between the two mechs and the new biome (described below), I had a blast playing on the new urban maps with the new mechs. It packs a meaty punch and I thoroughly enjoyed using it in tandem with the Raven. The Javelin is definitely a heavy hitting mech in practice.
Obviously, once the Raven is revealed, the ECM ceases to function due to sensor locking capabilities and line of sight. As such, any mech that is not situated inside the dome is discoverable by the enemy lance – which might be a good way to bait mechs out of position. As mentioned previously, the ECM appears as a dome overtop of the mech that is equipped with it and shields other mechs underneath. I wanted to try them both and I found that using the Raven’s ECM ability to hide the location of my lance extremely useful in various missions.
In one of the new urban maps I used both the Raven and the Javelin in my lance.
